ayy (I fucking regret factory resetting my pc back to windows 7 and not upgrading to 8.1)

On the bright side, Windows 10 🙂

Yeah, basically didn't bother getting windows 8.1 back because windows 10 will be released soon anyways (on my birthday even woohoo, best bday present) but god damnit i miss that performance.

seriously, no joke! Windows 8 has its issues, but the desktop boots in an instant.

It cycles through tons of wallpapers (like 260+)
Deja vu, I feel like I posted in a previous desktop thread :o

Also, kind of related, I made some wallpers from existing wallpapers by opening them in Audacity, fucking with them, then making them back into images. This one's probably my favorite (from Van Gogh's Starry night)

Is that gnome? Looks clean as fuck.

Why yes, it is gnome.

Does Gnome have built in torrent software? I am running Mint, and while it does torrents with Transmission, it has other critical issues which are making me hate it.

Gnome probably comes with transmission if anything.

Go with deluge or rTorrent or something.

I tried to do that with some wallpapers but they just ended up breaking. 🙁

Deluge is probably the best in my opinion, I'd use it over any other torrent client any day.

deluge/transmission always seems to be my go to on linux. qBittorrent for windows.

Also laptop(mid 2009 mbp) running lubuntu. It was running osx yosemite but it was too slow so I ditched it.

Tossing mine into the mix. It's nothing special. I just use 8.1.

Thanks for pointing that out, I didn't even notice!
And yes, but it's a small one for some friends. About 6 at most.

Ah, cool!

By the way, just a friendly tip. You can click on the Reply button on the bottom right of each post to respond to someone. If you don't want to go to the Post Reply page, just click on Quote and scroll down to the Quick Reply box and you should see a prompt to "Quote these posts now" or "deselect them." I hope that helps! 🙂

Oh that's neat. I already knew about quick reply but the quote button comes in handy too. Thanks 😃

Well, mine is the same pic but with 8 different colors.


Nice! Haruhi for the win!

Pretty much the same. I'm just using a second variation of my wallpaper though.

Your taskbar is really big 😮

http://prntscr.com/7st4b1 what do you mean?

But srsly, it might have something to do with my terrible resolution. My monitors in tiny as well.

I believe that there's a way to adjust this in either Regedit or Use Small Icons in Taskbar Properties.

Small icons seem to only adjust the verticle size. The box around the icon is still the same size sadly.
